i adored this read! i found the banter so charming, and the comedy is so well-placed. the moments of sadness, was often alleviated by a funny gag that had me grinning widely. i ADORE all the characters. i wonder where it is quinn is spending their money...
i think you wrote the protagonist wonderfully. i understand being sheltered, and the feeling of being "out-of-your-depth" is so true to life. T_T) i may have bonded with this protagonist more than i should've. i, fortunately, know where money comes from; however, the thought of "i don't know how to do this thing everyone knows how to do" hit close to home. also, i'm the youngest of four, so.
all of the lore regarding the protag's family, while plentiful, hadn't overwhelmed me, much to my surprise? they made me giggle and smile because, a lot of the time, they were the most absurd things. but i love how it's rooted in serious tones. there's a dark history.
i truly, truly enjoyed your writing. i can't wait to see what awaits our noble next! (i wanted to share my favorite character, but i hold all of them so fondly, LOL. maybe quinn? <3 their jests have stolen my heart.)
